Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does Intense Pulsed Light work on hair?
A: Technically speaking, light is absorbed by the brown or black melanin pigment in the hair follicle and in one single pulse the light is converted to heat. The heat permanently disables the hair follicle and prevents further regrowth by coagulating the bulge and bulb of the follicle. Bye bye follicle! At the exact moment of the light pulse a blast of freezing water cools the treatment spot and you hardly feel the heat. This is why our machine is considered to be extremely comfortable.
The key to safe and effective IPL hair removal is careful selection of the proper wavelength, pulse width and energy density which vary considerably based on skin time, hair color and hair thickness. Our skin station provides greater flexibility then laser in allowing the selection of different filters and treament parameters to provide the best results safely and comfortably. Our clients often return to work immediately following treatment. We make it easy to enjoy long-lasting removal of excess and unwanted hair.
Q: Will all of my hair be removed?
A: Each average treatment permenantly effects up to 20% of the hairs within an area. Many individuals experience 70% to 80% permanent hair reduction after approximately 8 sessions. Others have even higher results of 90% or greater reduction. Most patients are left with some remaining hairs in the treatment area which were either too fine or too light in color to be disabled. Provided the hair contains a sufficient deposit of melanin pigment, the treatment will generally stop further hair growth.
